David Smith taught science at the city school. He needed some modern books and bought them. He put the books in his car in a quiet street. Then he went to buy something else. When he came back to the car, he found that one of the car’s doors was open, the books weren’t there! David drove home. That night he wrote a letter to the newspaper. The next day he went to the police station and offered the list of the lost books. On Friday, people read this in the newspaper:
| Books: Have you any old and modern books? I want some. Open all day on Saturday. David Smith, 26 Fry Road. |
David stayed at home on Saturday. The policeman came at eight. David took him to the kitchen. One hour later, another man arrived. He had a bag under his arm.
“Mr. Smith?” the man asked.
“That’s right,” David said. “Can I help you?”
“I’ve got some good books. You want to buy books, don’t you?”
“Yes. Bring them in. Let me have a look.”
Soon the books were on the table. “Come in now,” David called. Then the policeman came in with the book list. He read the names on the books and the names on the list. They were the same.
